Henry,

So far there is no indication of a La Nina forming.Currently nino 1 and 2 are -0.6 but nino 3 is +0.6 and 4 is +0.8 Are you saying that the crashing SOI will change 3 and 4 to go negative?? The current pattern is behaving as though a weak El nino is in place,

  You know what, you are correct, I am totally backwards. Negative SOI means Stronger El Nino not La Nina.

18Z GFS till doesn’t show ridge in the West and trough in the East, even with the obvious PNA positive and NAO negative, let alone the El Nino effect.
